In his words....

So after 10 years my son Trevor (now 21) has decided 

to take up the goalie gear again.

Unfortunately he seems to be having a problem finding a team

Small town living doesn't provide a lot of opportunities

But for now he can at least play drop-in.

He's a little worried because he hasn't done it since 

he was PeeWee age,

when, admittedly, he was awesome.

He quit because of his attitude at the time

Long story that is...

but now, when he sees his old coach 

watching a local Junior A team 

His coach says, "you could have been there too"

And Trevor says "I know, I wish I hadn't have quit".

Carey Price, goalie for Montreal, is his hero

because he's from a small town an hour north of here

and made it to big-time NHL.

"That could have been me" he says.

If nothing else, he learned a lesson about quitting with all that.

Anyways, as I said, he's a little nervous

So I suggested that he go to what is called "stick'n'puck"

Kind of a free for all where there are pucks for everyone 

and you just practice on your own.

He gave me a horrified look and said, in all earnestness

"But then people will shoot on me!"

Um, news flash Trevor, that's what happens when you're a goalie.

Or had you forgotten that part?
